  • How Can We Move RNA Forward In Our Therapeutics Arsenal?

    RNA technologies, including mRNA therapeutics, have emerged as a promising drug modality. However, they have unique challenges. BioPhorum has dedicated a team to investigate these challenges and this Q&A shares their practical considerations for how to move this field forward.

  • Assessing Quality Of mRNA Vaccines: Key Considerations

    To address the need for standards for mRNA vaccines, the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) has convened vaccine experts to identify important quality attributes and to propose test methods that can be used to assess mRNA vaccine products. This article shares those CQAs and analytical procedure tips.

  • Defining The RNA Therapeutics Industry In 2023

    Four executives outline which industry challenges, strategic considerations, and opportunities should be top of mind as RNA therapeutics companies establish their to-do lists for 2023.

  • Moderna & The Global mRNA Supply Chain: Regulatory Lessons Learned

    One of the most important reminders I took away from Moderna’s experiences ushering its mRNA vaccine onto the global market is that a commercial manufacturing process must also be accompanied by a commercially ready supply chain. Though sufficient physical volumes of each raw material and a redundant supplier network are necessities, physical scale is not the only “CQA” for which we must account when commercializing our supply chain. 

  • “To Thine Own [mRNA Product] Be True:” Shakespeare's Guide To RNA GMP Principles

    In the following article, I offer some of the biggest tips and tricks experts offered during a panel discussion on the challenges of navigating GMP principles in the RNA space today — with a little bit of help from Shakespeare himself. 

  • Plasmid Production: 3 Key Takeaways For mRNA Manufacturing

    Following my latest Live panel on analytical and manufacturing technology innovations for mRNA production, I wanted to provide a few high-level takeaways I gleaned from our discussion on the overlooked darling of the mRNA space: The plasmid. 

SUPPLY CHAIN VIDEOS

Tune in as Roberta Duncan, VP of the mRNA program at Seqirus; Duke Human Vaccine Institute Associate Director of Upstream and Downstream Process Development Jason Dickens, Ph.D.; and Jin Zhou, Executive Director of Process Development for mRNA and Protein Biologics at Ultragenyx share supply chain and manufacturing capacity constraints in the face of the urgency to address COVID-19. This is an excerpt from the Bioprocess Online Live event - mRNA Manufacturing: Bright Future, Big Challenges.

In this Bioprocess Online Live panel, we discuss two experts' perspectives on the current state of the mRNA supply chain for critical raw materials and manufacturing supplies and where pain points still exist.
